About Our Area
The Northampton Area is nestled in the foothills of the Berkshires and cradles the Connecticut River, in the heart of the Pioneer Valley, in Western Massachusetts. The area offers residents and visitors vibrant Downtowns and rural splendor, all within a short drive.
A special blend of urban and rural, historic and contemporary, intellectual, artsy, athletic, and entrepreneurial energy,
the area is kind of like “New England with a Twist.”
